Rationally trust, but emotionally? The roles of cognitive and affective trust in laypeople's acceptance of AI for preventive care operations by Kyung, Nakyung, Kwon, Eric Hyeokkoo

“…Nevertheless, particularly in the context of preventive care, little is known about how laypeople perceive and accept AI and change their behavior accordingly. Grounded in a solid theoretical framework of trust, this study bridges this gap by exploring individuals’ acceptance of AI-based preventive health interventions and following health behavior change, which is critical for preventive care providers’ operational and business performance. …”

Effect of pore-size distribution on unsaturated shear strength of residual soil from sedimentary Jurong formation by Ong, Weilin.

“…The soil-water characteristic curve of the soil indicates how the mineral composition and weathering grade affect the pore-size distribution of the residual soil. A change in the matric suction in the soil causes a change in water volume in an unsaturated soil, which in turn affects the unsaturated shear strength of the soil. …”
